Conor Coghlan's Bow Spring Chair
So much nice work, and I can't take my eyes of the terrible screws holding the bottom of teh bow together. Consider different joinery method at the bottom. At the least cut those screws down, or get some shorter ones, binding posts maybe? C'mon, it's so close.
My first thoughts exactly. A complete holistic design really comes down to the details that everybody else will not worry about until. But, in the end these are the points that can cause the overall design to feel unfinished.

Yes, Binding posts, but this is quite a nice looking piece!
Although I would agree that binding posts might be a better choice visually.
Bolts, not screws. Bolts are a bit trickier to even up than it first appears. Perhaps it is intended to give the chair a bit of traction so that it doesn't "spring" it's way across the floor.
Lets hope you don't buy this with a wooden or ceramic floor then!
